Greetings,

A client has had a distribution list for about a week. Today the
distribution list results in an error upon trying to open:

Can't open this item. There is not enough memory available on the Microsoft
Exchange Server computer to perform this operation. Contact your System
Administrator.

I know there are size limitations on distribution list, and I forwarned my
client. Her statement from the incident was:

"I was adding names and then it told me it was out of memory, so I deleted
the last two entries so I could start a new list with people's last names
begining with M. I saved the list and now I can not open it".

If she went over her limit I can understand, but is there a way to split the
list so it can be opened without having to re-enter all the data again? Or
is there a way to edit the Exchange Server to allow larger Distribution
List?

Thanks,

Fixed the problem.
I Exported the DL to a backup.pst file, then deleted a few more entries and
copied the DL back up to their Public Folders. Recreated the entires on
another DL. All works fine now.

Cheers,
